Robopons are powerful melee units that fight with their large robotic arms. These Patapons can be equipped with helmets of any kind, unless already evolved into a Rarepon from the evolution map. They can do relatively high damage, and have decent defense. Their defense skills are lower than Tatepons, and they can be tanks, but are not as good as Dekapons, but they are very good at demolishing obstacles. A full Robopon squad consists of 3 Robopons. Robopons are not Robots. They are still Patapons but they are wearing robotic arms to fight. According to the Patapons, it's their latest technology in Patapon 2. They are one of the 3 Elite Patapon Units, the other 2 being Toripon and Mahopon.
Robopons are robot-armed warriors born somehow along the evolution process. They can interchange their attachments on both arms to double the effectiveness of a single piece of equipment. Their defense is less than Tatepons, but their structure destructive power is unrivaled. They're the destroyers boasted by the Patapon army.
The Robopons put their fists up, making a fair defensive barrier. It's not as good as a Tatepon's shield, but it does defend fairly well. When they are near an enemy while defending, they will hit the enemy with one arm.
Robopons will shovel into the ground and take out a giant rock to throw it to the enemy. This is considered to be the strongest charge attack among the classes. This attack deals massive amounts of damage to bosses and especially structures. Even with the weakest weapons the rock-throwing can deal 100 points of damage.
Robopons will once again make a defensive barrier but far,far, stronger. A 1000 damage attack, or even more,will be turned into 30 when attacking this Barrier!
Tornado Punch: Simultaneously swings both arms and pummels enemies into submission. Cause great amount of damage to structures like barricades, boulders, and buildings. This is the second strongest Hero Mode in Patapon 2, if you have good equipment (Divine, Heaven, Demon or other Rare Equipments), and a strong Rarepon.This attack will also help greatly if you are fighting Cioking and your equipment has a high critical and stagger rate.
Crushcombo (Destrobo): His Hero Mode, called "Crushcombo", is similar to Tornado Punch, but this one does have a tornado-like aura and is faster. When entering Uberhero Mode, he loudly says: "Crush-Com-Bo"!. Destrobo takes small breaks between swings.
Freaky Tree (Bowmunk): Bowmunk will heal the allied units within the range of grown grass. The healing power is determined by Bowmunk's damage output.
In Patapon 2, Robopons are the only unit that can equip 2 weapons at a time.
In Patapon 3 Robopon units Rock Throw was changed. In Patapon 2 it could be thrown higher, but now it only gets thrown by specific height. This actually makes Rocks accuracy better.
In Patapon 2 Robopons are the most powerful units if they had a powerful arms and high levelled gyaba,sabara and mogyu. Even if Dekapons had rivaled power Robopons had faster attack speed.
